Home to First is one side of a right triangle, first to second is the second side of the right triangle and then home to second base would be the hypotenuse of a right triangle.

Using the Pythagorean Theorem we can solve for the hypotenuse:

Let C = the hypotenuse:

90^2 + 90^2 = c^2

8100 + 8100 = c^2

16200 = c^2

c = √16200

c = 127.279 feet, round to 127 feet.

Distance between (-10,9) and (-5,2)

jonny [76]

Answer:

8.60 units (3 s.f.)

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between 2 points is given by the formula:

$\sqrt{(y1 - y2)^{2} + {(x1 - x2)}^{2} }$

Thus using the above formula,

Distance between (-10, 9) and (-5, 2)

$= \sqrt{ {(9 - 2)}^{2} + {( - 10 + 5)}^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ {7}^{2} + ( - 5)^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{74} \\ = 8.60 \: units \: (3 \: s.f.)$
